Description

Create an aliasesin the artifact aliases file (for example in a 2.2-SNAPSHOT server image):
org.apache.geronimo.configs/jasper//car=org.apache.geronimo.configs/jasper/2.2-SNAPSHOT/car
org.apache.geronimo.configs/jasper/2.1/car=org.apache.geronimo.configs/jasper/2.2-SNAPSHOT/car

Attempt to install a plugin that has a dependency on one of these aliases. For example, attempt to install the 2.1-SNAPSHOT plugin for the jsp-examples-tomcat sample in a 2.2-SNAPSHOT server. The expectation is that the alias will be invoked for the jasper dependency and no attempt will be made to install the jasper 2.1 plugin. However, the artifact query doesn't include the aliases and therefore we attempt to download and install the 2.1 jasper plugin rather than utilizing the 2.2-SNAPSHOT version of the plugin.
